2 Clemson Single Aluminum Conductor Underground Direct Burial 600V URD

Allowable Ampacity for 2 Clemson Single Aluminum Conductor Underground Direct Burial 600V URD: 155 Amps

Applications:

This single aluminum conductor URD cable is used for secondary underground power distribution in utility, commercial, and industrial applications. Designed for direct burial or duct installation, it is suitable for wet and dry locations with a maximum operating temperature of 90°C. 

• This cable serves as a neutral or grounding conductor in underground secondary distribution systems.
• It delivers power from utility transformers to residential and commercial buildings in service drop applications.
• It distributes electricity from generators or substations to critical infrastructure in backup power systems.
• It connects solar and wind power systems to the electrical grid or battery storage units in renewable energy tie-ins.

Construction

Conductors:

This is an aluminum conductor cable. The conductor is designed in two forms: either concentric strand or compressed. The stranded type tends to be more flexible compared to the compressed series of aluminum conductors. The 1350-H19 series of compressed aluminum conductors are suitable for applications where flexibility is overlooked and cable rigidity is guaranteed.

Insulation:

Aluminum 600V URD cable has black resistant cross-linked polyethylene (XLP) insulation. The conductors are normally cabled together with XLP insulated aluminum ground or bare copper ground and covered with reinforced binder tape. XLP insulation is tough and resistant to impact, abrasion, chemicals, acids, oils, industrial solvents, and changes in weather.
